A 23-YEAR-OLD charged with causing death by dangerous driving is set to appear in court next month. 

Shea Rourke, of Coates Drive, Pinvin, Pershore, has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving following the death of Jobie Haynes.

The 26-year-old died in a car crash near Pinvin on March 26.

Rourke is also charged with causing death by driving a vehicle - driver unlicensed/uninsured and driving a motor vehicle with a proportion of a specified controlled drug above the specified limit.

The prosecution alleges Rourke caused the death of Mr Haynes after crashing a Volkswagen Golf into a tree on the B4082, between Upton Snodsbury and Pinvin, near Seaford, Worcestershire.

Rourke is also accused of having a proportion of Ketamine in his blood greater than the legal limit. 

The defendant is to appear at Kidderminster Magistrates Court on Thursday, December 7, when he is set to be asked for a plea to the charges. 

We previously reported that Mr Haynes' death caused shock in the community with floral tributes being left near to where the crash took place just past the junction for Seaford Lane, near Pinvin.

Mum Susan Tustin paid tribute to her son who she said was "kind to everybody” and his friends remembered him as "the life of the party".

His mum said: “He was the most caring, loving, amazing person.

“I used to look after people with special needs and he always had time for them.

“Nobody could have a bad word to say about Jobie. If you were feeling down, you knew who to ring.”

Jobie, previously of Ombersley but latterly of Strensham, had only arrived back in England weeks before the crash having spent time travelling around Australia and southeast Asia.

Hundreds of people attended his funeral at Pershore Abbey in May.

Pallbearers and friends wore pink suits or bright colours and there were floral tributes from the family.
